Kittens. And an odd little girl. Aaaaaaaaaaamazing.

essentials?

Alright Target, I love you, I do... but boxers with devils and/or flames and/or hearts are decidedly not essential.

words that i read incorrectly... over and over again

soiree
how you're supposed to say it: swah-rey
what i hear when i read it: soy-ree

tarot
how you're supposed to say it: tar-oh
what i hear when i read it: tar-it

paradigm
how you're supposed to say it: par-uh-dahym
what i hear when i read it: par-uh-digum

epitome
how you're supposed to say it: e-pit-uh-mee
what i hear when i read it: eh-pit-ohm

perfectly crafted.

This would fall into the things-that-look-like-other-things category. Like burger candy, or fake bacon (a.k.a. fakon)... it seems like if the cookie monster was going to be anything other than himself he'd be purely a cookie, NOT a cupcake. But maybe it's better this way. Choosing the latter, we might have a scary situation on our hands, and no one wants that.

Om nom nom nom. Thank you, whoever you are.
